Clinical Trial Summary

This study compares two modified techniques(contralateral cricothyroid pressure and ipsilateral head turning technique) of nasogastric tube insertion in anesthetized and intubated patients with the conventional technique.


Clinical Trial Description

The insertion of nasogastric tube in anesthetized, paralysed and intubated unconscious patients may be difficult, with a reported failure rate of nearly 50% on the first attempt, with the head in neutral position there are many different maneuvers to facilitate the insertion of nasogastric tube published.

Our hypothesis is that contralateral cricothyroid pressure to the selected nostril for nasogastric tube insertion will be able to avoid the difficulty.

Therefore we are going to compare this technique with the conventional technique (head in neutral position) with lateral head turning group and contralateral cricothyroid pressure group We hope that the contralateral cricothyroid pressure will increase the success rate, as this will be helpful in intubated patients with neck pathology. ;
